I installed two #6 aluminum (tall skinny) tanks on our 30 mk1’s pushpit rails using the rail mount assembly from Sure Marine in Seattle. They sold us the tanks, rail mounts, regulator, gauge, solenoid, solenoid switch, everything except the hoses. One of the brackets has the regulator, gauge, and solenoid mounted; the other is plain to hold the spare tank (which we also use for the BBQ). It’s a great setup, reasonably priced, 100% would buy again. Also bought a long hose from Greenline who also sold a hard plastic wrap for chafe protection where it passes through bulkheads cabinetry and the like. Super simple install took an afternoon, solid, dependable, ABYC compliant, looks great on the boat.

I just finished converting my Sabre to propane. One thing is, only one connection inside the boat at the stove. I mounted the regulator and solenoid valve under a stern pulpit seat. Teed in a hose to the grill also. On my LF39 I get a few months out of a 2.5 gallon bottle of full time use.

I am probably going to strap a tank on the stern rail. I need to find those little tall and thin aluminum tanks. No way am I going around with a 20 pound steel grill tank hanging off there, that is too low budget even for me! I may actually try a little torch tank and see how long it lasts. We do all the cooking we can on the outside grill anyway to not heat up the cabin.

Boats with CNG systems tend not to have one In our case CNG is easy to source but certifying the tanks is nearly impossible Mike From: Della Barba, Joe via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com <mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com> > Sent: June 15, 2023 10:15 AM To: Stus-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com <mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com> > Cc: Della Barba, Joe <joe.della.ba...@ssa.gov <mailto:joe.della.ba...@ssa.gov> > Subject: Stus-List Force 10 Stove Does the standard American size Force 10 3-burner stove fit the C&C 35 MK I? I would assume it does, but want to check. I am thinking of going from CNG to propane, CNG is very hard to source now in most places.
